Discussion [D] ‘Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery’: Alleged plagiarism of “Momentum Residual Neural Networks” (ICML2021) by “m-RevNet: Deep Reversible Neural Networks with Momentum” (ICCV2021) (self.MachineLearning)

A Twitter discussion has brought to our attention that an ICML2021 paper, “Momentum Residual Neural Networks” (by Michael Sander, Pierre Ablin, Mathieu Blondel and Gabriel Peyré) has allegedly been plagiarized by another paper, “m-RevNet: Deep Reversible Neural Networks with Momentum” (by Duo Li, Shang-Hua Gao), which has been accepted at ICCV2021.

The main figures of both papers, look almost identical, and the authors of the ICML2021 paper wrote a blog post that gathered a list of plagiarism evidence: https://michaelsdr.github.io/momentumnet/plagiarism/

I assume that the ICCV2021 committee has been notified of this, so we will need to see what the final investigation results are from program chairs.
